Police Says It Is Under Pressure To Free Kidnap Kingpin, Evans

The Nigeria Police has disclosed that it is being pressured to release arrested kidnap kingpin Evans.

Galadanshi Dasuki, Ag. Commissioner of Police of Lagos State, made the disclosure while speaking to newsmen yesterday at the Police Command Headquarters in Ikeja.

He however declared that they have no plans of releasing the billionaire kidnapper, despite the calls for his release from different quarters.

He further noted that the notorious kidnapper who was arrested a little over two weeks ago at his Magodo Estate mansion in Lagos state has been on the wanted list of the police for nearly seven years and now that he has been caught, there is the need to “understudy as well as debrief him.”

In his words; “Evans has been a kidnapper for a long time and has been on the wanted list of the Police in Anambra, Abuja, Enugu, Edo and Lagos states.

“He also has a criminal gang, some of whom have been arrested in Enugu and Lagos. But there are still more out there. Therefore, this needs a painstaking investigation

“Besides, we need to understudy him as well as debrief him. By so doing, we intend to use his tactics to get others. He will eventually be charged to court after investigation is concluded,”
